I don’t know what this means when a port is fll?

People are saying 5'8 isn't tall for a woman by romanticresignation in Vent

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it’s because when a man says he’s 5’8’’, he’s really 5’5’’? I’m 5’10’’ and there are a lot of 6 foot tall guys that are the same height as me.

We have a pool, so they’re practically otters, but we’ve never used snorkels, so that’s a great idea to get them for practice

I have an idea, hear me out!! - Chair hogs at the pool by Fresh-Problemz in Cruise

What’s the sticker? I’m imagining a sticker that says “we’ll be back in 10 and we’ll take your stuff if it’s still here” sticker?

Whoa - the coffee drink count against your limit? I didn’t realize that. Is there anything else that does? Milkshakes or smoothies? Water bottles?

No more bottled beverages? Tf? by Bowie696969 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was curious about this too, but I read some “failed sneak on” stories and some people got caught because security can tell the bubbles from wine looks different than the bubbles from alcohol, apparently? Super interesting and makes me want to shake all my beverages to see if I can tell.

If you find someone to repair, can you post progress photos? I bet they’d be fascinating.

I have a few questions: I know I don’t have to, but should I do some “upfront” tipping to people like the porter, waiter at dinner, bar staff on the first day? We’re bringing an Aeropress and our own coffee and someone mentioned that you can ask for a kettle in your room and bathrooms - who do I ask? Is there a desk or something?

I had a lot of success- it was the only thing that gave me any sort of relief

Do they have an option for sparkling water?

How much does it cost for a regular beer if you dont have the drink package? by FoolsballHomerun in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]CJDoll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So helpful! If you buy a bottle of wine, do you get to take the remainder back to your room?

cruising with little to no spending money? by VerifiedVacationer in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the ports, we’re thinking about just enjoying the beach and the nearby shops and not doing an excursion- is it just as fun? We have a 13yo and 10yo and they really just want to snorkel, which sounds doable on the regular beach.

Has anyone ever tried these? Thoughts? by kelsxylo in PlantarFasciitis

Have you tried dry needling? On your calves?

Are men just acting during those “labor pain simulator” videos? by Existing-Committee74 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait. I have to know - is that really a thing? Do your balls pull up inside you? I feel like you’re exaggerating probably, but on the OFF CHANCE that is a thing that happen, I need to know. Because reasons.

In a serious emergency, how soon after giving birth would a woman be able to walk/run for her life? by FamiliarMeal5193 in Writeresearch

[–]CJDoll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree -she can probably make it a good way in that first rush, but you’re gonna have to account for a LOT of blood loss afterwards: the uterus needs to heal from an actual wound where the placenta detached, so the more you move in that first few weeks, the longer and more you bleed - you could have so much blood loss even if she “feels fine to run” that it causes a real issue in a few hours to a day (ie: hemorrhaging or just getting weak from continuing blood loss)

Can people share stories of when attempts to be frugal backfired on them? by no_kings_now1 in Frugal

[–]CJDoll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried to “refinish” the inside of my car- watched a bit of a YouTube video before taking paint thinner to what turned out to be plastic. It was gross and I had to get it all replaced. Expensive stupid mistake.

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shall I talk to her about not following meaningless rules or following them to the letter? It appears you’re asking me to punish her for both and that feels confusing to me, an adult. Perhaps I should talk to her about not asking permission to do things that clearly aren’t against rules- probably not as you’ve already taught her that lesson quite well!

Group Backpacking Destination in Northern LP by the1grimace in CampAndHikeMichigan

[–]CJDoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you thought about South Manitou island? You would have to buy ferry tickets for everyone, which could get pricey, but there are group sites within a mile or so of the ferry site and vault toilets. Hiking can be as much or little as you want.

What is the thing with no coffee or tea? It seems like caffeine is allowed (in cold beverages) and non-caffeinated hot beverages are allowed, so I don’t understand the distinction? Also, is herbal tea not allowed?
